I think this JavaScript code should do the trick:

const resumed = document.querySelector('[data-dv_ref="resume"]');
  if (resumed) {
    GetPlayer().SetVar('Resumed', true)
  } 

In your project, create a variable (eg. Resumed). set it to False. Execute JavaScript When the timeline starts on this slide. When you launch the course for the first time, "Resumed" will be False because the Resume button is not yet visible, When you reload the course, the Resume button shows and turn the "Resumed" variable to True when the course is resumed. You should probably place the Execute JavaScript trigger in the Master slide.  Your "Resumed" variable will keep its value throughout the course unless you change it on purpose.
